I haven't watched it yet. The 1st episodes are usually kind of out there and confusing. I don't like that they have only 6 ep.
Weren't the earlier seasons around 8 ep.?

It’s always been six per season. Part of the reason they have such a good turnaround between seasons. I didn’t get a chance to watch last night but I plan to tonight.

Great episode tonight.

Taverner was extra cunty as first chair.

River on the hood of his Dad’s car was something.

It’s going to be so strange seeing River be a badass as Bond after getting clowned on so much in this show.

She was a real bitch for dropping that comment in front of Standish.

I think they will keep Lowden.

I think Apple will try all they can to keep him, which will require a big pay raise, but it would draw some attention to Apple TV and bring in some customers to see what show he is in.

If they can't keep him for good, I think he would give one last season and they kill him off. It would give a chance for the writers and Oldman to show an unfiltered raw emotion from Lamb that we haven't seen.
The viewers keep thinking surely he will show some real emotion and behave like you should in a circumstance but his veil of cynicism, humor, rudeness, and brashness comes up to hide his feelings. You have only gotten small glimpses of it but it is in private and well hidden beneath.

I was actually pissed at Lamb when he told Standish about her old boss being a traitor and left her at the gas station.

Taverner has always been the antagonist

The first episode was good. I was a little worried since the writer and show runner Will Smith(not that one) left the show.

It was spoiled in the season trailer and I was still surprised when it happened. I was expecting his mum.

This last episode had some of the funniest content I think we’ve seen in the show. Roddy and Lamb with the murdered dog’s kid and River/Sid with the old lady was just hilarious.

I’m worried about Coe. Waiting for River and Sid and he sees the assassins go in after them.

Interesting that we get the reveal that they’re Russian (assassins).

Love this show but hate that the seasons are only 6 episodes. Seems like stuff is just getting ramped up and you look and see it's halfway over.

How did the assassins not recognize Sid if she’s on their list? Seems like Sid may have something to do with why the assassins are killing Slow Horses. Probably why she is desperate to get in touch with Taverner.

I think Flyte ends up at First Desk by end of show.

Well, the Assassins getting to them so quickly makes me think Sid may be involved anyway. There’s something off about her this season IMO.

FWIW, I haven’t read the books so I don’t know where it goes. Trying to avoid that.

I have to expect that Taverner has something to do with all of this, which on top of being blackmailed, having a disaster interview, and being extremely disheveled. I’m thinking Taverner is on the way out.

I love Coe. Pulls up and tells River about having manners. And has rap music blaring in the car while assassins are out there after them

I’ve been stanning this show since I randomly stumbled on season 1 3 years ago. The speed in which they put out new seasons without losing any edge to character development/plots is rare. Lamb might be 2nd only to Lasso for all time fav Apple characters.

I dare say last night’s episode was one of the best of the series.
